# lavat
Little program that simulates a lava lamp in the terminal.
## Installation
```
git clone https://github.com/AngelJumbo/lavat
cd lavat
sudo make install
```
## Usage
```
Usage: lavat [OPTIONS]
OPTIONS:
-c COLOR Set color. Available colours: red, blue, yellow, green, cyan and magenta.
Besides those colors the default one is the normal foreground of your terminal.
-s SPEED Set the speed, from 1 to 5. (default 1)
-r RADIUS Set the radius of the metaballs, from 1 to 10. (default: 5)
-R RIM Set a "rim" for each metaball, size from 1 to 5. (default: none)
This option does not work with the default color
-b NBALLS Set the number of metaballs in the simulation, from 2 to 20. (default: 10)
-h Print help.
```
## Demo
`lavat -c red -R 1`

`lavat -c cyan -R 4 -b 20 -r 2`
![demo 2](https://github.com/AngelJumbo/lavat/blob/main/demo/2.gif?raw=true)
(The cyan isn't quite right because of my color scheme.)
